ACA Publishing Limited Shanghai - the 'Pacesetter' of China's Reform and
Book SynopsisShanghai was the economic center of the far east in the early 20th century, when it was known as the ‘Paris of the orient’. Decades of relative decline followed until the start of China’s reform and opening-up policy and the decision to develop Pudong. Since then, Shanghai has regained its status as the country’s leading industrial and commercial center, and emerged as a key city in the Asia-Pacific region.Today, it is focusing on a four-pronged development approach with the target of becoming not only one of the world’s top financial centers by 2020 but also a global economic, trade and shipping hub. In 2015, Shanghai’s financial sector grew by 23%, contributing 16.2% to the city’s GDP. In shipping, it has supplanted Hong Kong and Singapore to become the busiest container port in the world with a total throughput of more than 37m TEUs in 2016. Shanghai, the Pacesetter of China’s Reform and Opening Up provides a comprehensive overview of the historical, cultural and social characteristics of Shanghai, its national and global status, and its development before and after reform and opening up. It charts the transformation of Shanghai’s economy, and goes on to assess its pioneering national role in terms of social administration and cultural development. Lesser-known aspects of the city, including the ecological environment and administrative operations, are also analysed in depth. The book concludes with a look at the future development of Shanghai, the integration of the Yangtze River Delta and the vision to create a cosmopolitan city with the capability to allocate global resources.

Globe Law and Business Ltd International Design Protection: A Global
Book SynopsisDesigns have underpinned much of the technological and industrial innovation of recent years. They have become increasingly valuable within the portfolio of intellectual property rights. Indeed, given the extent to which economic growth is driven by these advancements and the ever-increasing financial benefits of holding exclusive exploitation rights for the most significant designs, the importance of protecting such designs cannot be understated. International Design Protection is an international compendium of design law in a selection of major jurisdictions. It covers the applicability of registered and unregistered design rights and ancillary protection by copyright and trademarks. It also deals with the practicalities of design protections and the enforcement of design rights, including qualification for protection, infringement, design infringement litigation, licensing and exploitation. Written by a team of leading specialists in design law, this updated second edition reflects recent developments across a number of jurisdictions and is an essential practical guide to navigating this complex and fascinating field.Table of ContentsPreface 5 Clive Thorne Baker Botts LLP Australia 7 Tim Webb Clayton Utz Belgium 23 Karel Nijs Pierstone Philippe Péters NautaDutilh Brazil 37 Simone Lahorgue Nunes Levy & Salomão Advogados Canada 51 Gina Demczuk Canadian Competition Bureau Stuart C McCormack Barrister and solicitor Denmark 67 Claus Barrett Christiansen Anne Dahl Hansen Maria Rose Kristensen Bech-Bruun Finland 83 Kukka Tommila Properta Attorneys Ltd France 95 Stefan Naumann Hughes Hubbard & Reed LLP Germany 103 Moritz Hüsch Heymann & Partner Rechtsanwälte Katharina Scheja Dentons LLP Hong Kong 117 Anna Mae Koo Vivien Chan & Co India 133 Amita Arora Archana Shanker Anand and Anand Israel 153 Shlomo Cohen Dr Shlomo Cohen & Co Italy 161 Massimiliano Pappalardo D&P Studio Legale Japan 173 Takamitsu Shigetomi Oh-Ebashi LPC & Partners Netherlands 183 Thijs van Aerde Houthoff Buruma New Zealand 195 Paul Sumpter Chapman Tripp Russia 205 David Aylen Gowling WLG Russia/CIS Singapore 245 Alban Kang Bird & Bird ATMD LLP South Africa 259 Lodewyk Cilliers Owen Dean Spoor & Fisher Sweden 269 Michael Plogell Plogell Advokatbyrå Erik Ullberg Wistrand Advokatbyrå Turkey 281 Ug˘ur Aktekin Mutlu Yıldırım Köse Gün + Partners United Kingdom 293 Clive Thorne Baker Botts LLP United States 311 Jared Bunker Lynda Zadra-Symes Knobbe Martens About the authors 327

Macat International Limited An Analysis of Seyla Benhabib's The Rights of
Book SynopsisIn The Rights of Others, Benhabib argues that the transnational movement of people across the globe has brought to the fore fundamental dilemmas facing liberal democracies: tension between a state’s commitment to universal human rights, and to its sovereign self-determination and its claims to regulate its national borders on the other. Re-conceptualises the boundaries of political membership in liberal democracies instead proposing ‘porous’ borders rather than open ones and a right to ‘just membership,’ advocating cosmopolitan federalism in the tradition of Kant. Banhabib’s work goes to the heart of key issues faced in a world of forced displacement, Brexit, and increased protectionism.Table of ContentsWays in to the Text Who is Seyla Benhabib?

Taylor & Francis Inc Wye Island: Insiders, Outsiders, and Change in a
Book SynopsisToday, most of the 2,800 tranquil acres that make up Wye Island are managed by the Maryland Park Service. However, from 1973 to 1974, the island was the site of a raging controversy. A major developer, James Rouse, wanted to build a compact waterfront village that would be surrounded by large estates, protected farms, and wetlands. A boyhood resident of nearby Easton, Maryland, Rouse hoped that the island could avoid the sprawl of unplanned subdivisions that were marring so many other places along the Eastern Shore. Combining history, journalism, character sketches, and sharp sociological insight, Boyd Gibbons presents the conflict over Wye Island in its multiple dimensions - as an example of the emerging community-based activism of the 1960s and 70s, and of a community that, while exercising its right to preserve its identity, denies opportunities for its members to improve their lives through change. In fact, Wye Island proves not to be the environmental David-Goliath struggle that might be expected. For one thing, residents opposed a development plan that can be regarded as an early model for 'smart growth.' And many were no more favorably disposed to a park or preserve than to a planned village. Their interest was in protecting the community from an invasion of immigrants from ethnically diverse Baltimore and Washington, and, where the wealthy were concerned, protecting some very private views of the water. In the end, rich landowners, poor 'natives,' and many recent newcomers opposed the Rouse project - distrusting change, and, above all, fearing 'outsiders.' The special reprint of Wye Island includes a new foreword by distinguished environmental historian Adam Rome, who explores the enduring themes of Wye Island in context of the current debates about land use, development, and sprawl.Trade Review'Gibbons‘s book moves with the grace of a novel.' Business Week 'Should be read by those who care about the future of our communities.' Library Journal 'Wye Island is primarily about people: clammers, crabbers, business executives, storekeepers, land speculators . . . .Gibbons succeeds in portraying the fear shared by the local citizens - and by implication, most Americans - of change.'

Springer Nature Switzerland AG Digital Revolution Tamed: The Case of the Recording Industry
Book SynopsisThis book explores why widespread predictions of the radical transformation in the recording industry did not materialise. Although the growing revenue generated from streaming signals the recovery of the digital music business, it is important to ask to what extent is the current development a response to digital innovation. Hyojung Sun finds the answer in the detailed innovation process that has taken place since Napster. She reassesses the way digital music technologies were encultured in complex music valorisation processes and demonstrates how the industry has become reintermediated rather than disintermediated. This book offers a new understanding of digital disruption in the recording industry. It captures the complexity of the innovation processes that brought about technological development, which arose as a result of interaction across the circuit of the recording business – production, distribution, valorisation, and consumption. By offering a more sophisticated account than the prevailing dichotomy, the book exposes deterministic myths surrounding the radical transformation of the industry.Trade Review“This volume is essential reading for anyone wondering how the current state of music access happened.” (Ed Komara, ARSC, Association for Recorded Sound Collections Journal, Vol. 52 (1), 2021)Table of ContentsList of Figures.- List of Tables.- List of Abbreviations.- Chapter 1 Introduction.- Chapter 2 Towards a More Sophisticated Account.- Chapter 3 The History of Technological Development in the Recording Industry.- Chapter 4 Evolution of Digital Music Services.- Chapter 5 Case Study - Spotify.- Chapter 6 Digital Music Distribution Networks.- Chapter 7 Case Study - INgrooves.- Chapter 8 Digital Revolution Tamed in the Recording Industry.- Bibliography.

Springer Nature Switzerland AG Law, Religion and Tradition
Book SynopsisThis book explores different theories of law, religion, and tradition, from both a secular and a religious perspective. It reflects on how tradition and change can affect religious and secular legal reasoning, identifying the patterns of legal evolution within religious and secular traditions.It is often taken for granted that, even in law, change corresponds and correlates to progress – that things ought to be changed and they will necessarily get better. There is no doubt that legal changes over the centuries have made it possible to enhance the protection of individual rights and to somewhat contain the possibility of tyranny and despotism. But progress is not everything in law: stability and certainty lie at the core of the rule of law. Similarly, religions and religious laws could not survive without traditions; and yet, they still evolve, and their evolution is often intermingled with secular law.The book asks (and in some ways answers) the questions: What is the role of tradition within religions and religious laws? What is the impact of religious traditions on secular laws, and vice-versa? How are the elements of tradition to be identified? Are they the same within the secular and the religious realm? Do secular law and religious law follow comparable patterns of change? Do their levels of resilience differ significantly? How does the history of religion and law affect changes within religious traditions and legal systems?The overall focus of the book addresses the extent to which tradition plays a role in shaping and re-shaping secular and religious laws, as well as their mutual boundaries.Table of ContentsFrom the Secularisation Theory to the Pluralistic Approach: Reconciling Religious Traditions and Modernity in Italian Case-law.- The Blasphemy Laws of Pakistan: Experimenting with History and Tradition.- An Analysis of the Possibility of Fulfilling Gender Equality Within the Legal System of The Islamic Republic Of Iran (Iri).- Tradition's Edge: Interactions between Religious Tradition and Sexual Freedom.- The Inverted Relationship: Constitutive Theory of Law and the Enforcement of Orthodoxy in the book XVI of The Theodosian Code.- The Recent, and Sometimes Invented, Origins of Some “Longstanding” Traditions.- Law, Religion, and the Detraditionalization Of Europe.- Tradition as a Peacebuilding Tool.

Springer Nature Switzerland AG Online Othering: Exploring Digital Violence and
Book SynopsisThis book explores the discrimination encountered and propagated by individuals in online environments. The editors develop the concept of 'online othering' as a tool through which to analyse and make sense of the myriad toxic and harmful behaviours which are being created through, or perpetuated via, the use of communication-technologies such as the internet, social media, and ‘the internet of things’. The book problematises the dichotomy assumed between real and virtual spaces by exploring the construction of online abuse, victims' experiences, resistance to online othering, and the policing of interpersonal cyber-crime. The relationship between various socio-political institutions and experiences of online hate speech are also explored.Online Othering explores the extent to which forms of information-technologies facilitate, exacerbate, and/or promote the enactment of traditional offline offences (such as domestic abuse and stalking). It focuses on the construction and perpetration of online abuse through examples such as the far-right, the alt-right and Men's Rights Activists. It also explores experiences of, and resistance to, online abuse via examples such as victims' experiences of revenge porn, online abuse and misogyny, transphobia, disability hate crime, and the ways in which online othering is intersectional. Finally, the collection addresses the role of the police and other agencies in terms of their interventions, and the regulation and governance of virtual space(s).

Springer Nature Switzerland AG Stock Market Short-Termism: Law, Regulation, and Reform
Book SynopsisConsideration of harmful short-termism in capital markets is prevalent amongst legal and business academics. It is also garnering increased attention in corporate board rooms and executive suites, and from the investing public. As a result, correcting perceived short-termism in capital markets has become a rationale for reform used by regulators across the globe. Despite the considerable attention given to this phenomenon, there has not yet been a comprehensive book analyzing the perceived short-termism problem, its sources and causes, and reform efforts undertaken to date. This book fills this gap by documenting the rise of the short-termism discussion, analyzing the significance of the problem, and considering the proposed legal remedies. Based on this analysis, a framework for effective short-termism reform is offered.Table of ContentsChapter 1. Introduction.- Chapter 2. Defining the Issues.- Chapter 3. Short-Termism, An Evolving Concern?.- Chapter 4. What Has Been Done to Correct Short-Termism?.- Chapter 5. Is There A Short-Termism Problem At All?.- Chapter 6.

Springer Nature Switzerland AG Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr., Pragmatism and Neuroscience
Book SynopsisThis book explores the cultures of philosophy and the law as they interact with neuroscience and biology, through the perspective of American jurist Oliver Wendell Holmes’ Jr., and the pragmatist tradition of John Dewey. Schulkin proposes that human problem solving and the law are tied to a naturalistic, realistic and an anthropological understanding of the human condition. The situated character of legal reasoning, given its complexity, like reasoning in neuroscience, can be notoriously fallible. Legal and scientific reasoning is to be understood within a broader context in order to emphasize both the continuity and the porous relationship between the two. Some facts of neuroscience fit easily into discussions of human experience and the law. However, it is important not to oversell neuroscience: a meeting of law and neuroscience is unlikely to prove persuasive in the courtroom any time soon. Nevertheless, as knowledge of neuroscience becomes more reliable and more easily accepted by both the larger legislative community and in the wider public, through which neuroscience filters into epistemic and judicial reliability, the two will ultimately find themselves in front of a judge. A pragmatist view of neuroscience will aid and underlie these events.Table of Contents1. Introduction.- 2. Holmes' Critical Experience in War.- 3. Experience, Inference and Surviving.- 4.

Springer Nature Switzerland AG Face Recognition Technology: Compulsory
Book SynopsisThis book examines how face recognition technology is affecting privacy and confidentiality in an era of enhanced surveillance. Further, it offers a new approach to the complex issues of privacy and confidentiality, by drawing on Joseph K in Kafka’s disturbing novel The Trial, and on Isaiah Berlin’s notion of liberty and freedom. Taking into consideration rights and wrongs, protection from harm associated with compulsory visibility, and the need for effective data protection law, the author promotes ethical practices by reinterpreting privacy as a property right. To protect this right, the author advocates the licensing of personal identifiable images where appropriate.The book reviews American, UK and European case law concerning privacy and confidentiality, the effect each case has had on the developing jurisprudence, and the ethical issues involved. As such, it offers a valuable resource for students of ethico-legal fields, professionals specialising in image rights law, policy-makers, and liberty advocates and activists.Table of Contents

Springer Nature Switzerland AG Migrants, Refugees and Asylum Seekers’
Book SynopsisThis open access book discusses how, and to what extent, the legal and institutional regimes and the socio-cultural environments of a range of European countries (the Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, Greece, Italy, Switzerland and the UK), in the framework of EU laws and policies, have a beneficial or negative impact on the effective capacity of these countries to integrate migrants, refugees and asylum seekers into their labour markets. The analysis builds on the understanding of socio-cultural, institutional and legal factors as “barriers” or “enablers”; elements that may facilitate or obstruct the integration processes. The book examines the two dimensions of integration being access to the labour market (which, translated into a rights language means the right to work) with its corollaries (recognition of qualifications, vocational training, etc.), and non-discriminatory working conditions (which, translated into a rights language means right to both formal and substantial equality) and its corollaries of benefits and duties deriving from joining the labour market. It thereby offers a novel approach to labour market integration and migration/asylum issues given its focus on legal aspects, which includes most recent policy changes and legal decisions (including litigation cases). The robust, evidence-based and comparative research illustrated in the book provides academics and students, but also practitioners and policy makers, with up to date knowledge that will likely impact positively on policy changes needed to better address integration conundrums.Table of ContentsChapter 1.

Springer Nature Switzerland AG Comparative Multidisciplinary Perspectives on
Book SynopsisThis book is the first in the world to provide a cross-national, comparative exploration of omnibus legislation. It contributes to the global debate over omnibus legislation and offers comprehensive, thorough and multifaceted coverage that concerns the fields of legislation and legisprudence, comparative law, political science, public policy and economics. Beyond its relevance for these fields, the book will support practitioners in parliaments, governments and courts, thereby impacting the actual use of omnibus legislation.A new, major and controversial reform is enacted in the middle of the night. It is buried in a massive omnibus bill hundreds of pages in length, which is rammed through the legislative process at breakneck speed. The legislators receive the final version of the bill in the very last minute, and protest that they’ve had no opportunity to read it in detail and know what they’re voting upon. The majority party’s legislative leaders, however, are unimpressed, and the law is eventually passed on the basis of strict party discipline.Though it may sound far-fetched, this scenario is all too familiar in many legislatures around the world. The legislative practice of combining numerous unrelated measures in one long bill, which is often passed via a highly expedited process, has become a matter of intense debate and criticism in many countries.Trade Review“One of the main merits of the volume is that it not only describes and discusses omnibus legislation, but also provides useful and valuable observations and suggestions for its regulation. … Bar-Siman-Tov’s seems to have achieved his goal of provide valuable insights for practitioners in addition to contributing to scientific debates on this topic. The drafters and enactors of legislation, such as politicians, parliamentarians, legislative drafters, and parliamentary officials are strongly advised to peruse this book … . Bar-Siman-Tov’s book provides an excellent basis, as well as useful suggestions … .” (Noémi Sebők, International Journal of Parliamentary Studies, November 8, 2021)“Policymakers, public sector lawyers, and legislative drafters will welcome this book if for no other reason than enabling them to confirm to themselves, and to explain to others, that they are not alone in facing and resisting increasing political pressures towards the use of omnibus legislation. … this book will remain a helpful starting point for those wishing to marshal experience and arguments. The authors and editor have therefore done us a great service.” (Daniel Greenberg CB, Statute Law Review, Vol. 42 (3), October, 2021)Table of ContentsIntroduction: Comparative Multidisciplinary Perspectives on Omnibus Legislation.- Part I.

Springer Nature Switzerland AG Rethinking Nordic Courts
Book SynopsisThis open access book examines whether a distinctly Nordic procedural or court culture exists and what the hallmarks of that culture are. Do Nordic courts and court proceedings share a distinct set of ideas and values that in combination constitute the core of a regional legal culture? How do Europeanisation, privatisation, diversification and digitisation influence courts and court proceedings in the Nordic countries? The book traces the genesis and formation of Nordic courts and justice systems to provide a richer comprehension of contemporary Nordic legal culture, and an understanding of the relationship between legal cultural stability and change. In answering these questions, the book provides models for conceptualising procedural culture. Nordic procedural culture has partly developed organically and is partly also the product of deliberate efforts to maintain a certain level of alignment between the Nordic countries. Studying Nordic cooperation enables us to gain a deeper understanding of current regional, European and global harmonisation processes within procedural law. The influx of supranational European law, increased use of alternative dispute resolution and growth in regulation density that produces a conflict between specialisation and coherence, have tangible impact on the role of courts in a democratic society, the form of court proceedings and court structures. This book examines whether and why some trends exert more tangible, or perhaps simply more perceptible, influence on procedural culture than others.Table of Contents

Springer Nature Switzerland AG Whistleblower Protection by the Council of
Book SynopsisFirst introduced in the United States, whistleblower laws have become increasingly popular around the world. This book illustrates the regional efforts undertaken by European organizations to promote whistleblower protection in Europe. To provide context, the first part of the book presents an overview of the international best practices for whistleblowing legislation and explores the status of whistleblower under international law. It also assesses the global hot topics regarding whistleblowing, from the cases of Edward Snowden and Julian Assange to the silencing of whistleblowers during the COVID-19 pandemic. The following parts focus on the European approach to whistleblower laws. It illustrates the influence of the Council of Europe in putting whistleblower protection on the European agenda and discusses the European Court of Human Rights’ case law on whistleblowing under Article 10 of the European Convention on Human Rights. In the final part, the author analyzes the evolution of the European Union’s approach to whistleblowing and the legal significance of the EU Whistleblower Directive adopted in 2019. In the respective parts, the author also examines the effectiveness of the international organizations’ own internal rules on whistleblowing, from the United Nations and the World Bank Group to the Council of Europe and the European Union.Table of ContentsPart 1: Whistleblower laws: An international perspective.- The Genesis of “Whistleblowing”.- Who is a whistleblower under the law?.- Blowing the whistle on wrongdoing.- Dedicated reporting channels.- Protective measures and Incentives.- Protection of whistleblowers within international organization.- Intermediate conclusion.- Part 2: Whistleblower protection by the Council of Europe.- Introduction.- The initiating role of the Parliamentary Assembly.- The Committee of Ministers’ Recommendation: A foundation stone for whistleblower protection in Europe.- Whistleblowers and national security.- Better protection for whistleblowers.- Intermediate Conclusion.- Part 3: Whistleblower protection under the European Convention on Human Rights.- The protection of whistleblowers under Article 10 ECHR.- A precedent-setting case: The Guja ruling of the ECtHR.- The ECtHR whistleblower protection principles: The six Whistleblowing criteria.- Intermediate Conclusion.- PART 4: Whistleblowers and the European Union.- Introduction.- Whistleblower protection regulations within EU Institutions.- When EU whistleblowers go to Court.- Existing whistleblowing rules in sectorial secondary legislation.- A new Whistleblower directive: Toward stronger protection in the EU.

Springer Nature Switzerland AG Rape in Early Modern England: Law, History and
Book SynopsisThis book is intended for those in the humanities seeking a legal context for writing about rape in early modern England. It takes the premise that over the past four decades misunderstandings about rape law, and misreadings of rape statutes from medieval to Elizabethan times, have become widely cited in criticism. Helen Barker identifies how this has arisen, and discusses the main sources of confusion – including indissoluble issues around the word ‘ravishment’. Rape law historically encompassed elopement and abduction; this book offers a succinct overview of the law, and draws attention to the wider social context other than gender opposition in which it is often presented. In addition, critics have been tempted to rely on the ostensibly authoritative seventeenth-century treatise, The Lawes Resolutions of Womens Rights, as a legal source. By examining the context of its publication, this book suggests that the treatise is unreliable and can mislead the unwary.Table of Contents1.

Springer Nature Switzerland AG Effective Governance Designs of Food Safety
Book SynopsisThis book provides insights on regulatory effectiveness in the field of food safety, by focusing on the variety of institutional factors affecting regulatory outcomes. Drawing upon the Institutional Analysis and Development framework, it investigates differences in effectiveness of food safety regulation and explains them by differences in domestic governance designs, by applying Qualitative Comparative Analysis. The empirical focus of the book is the food safety governance designs of 15 EU Member States, which are investigated through the collection of an original dataset inclusive of measures of independence and accountability of the domestic food safety agencies, of policy capacity and of food safety delivered. The results show the prominent role of the institutional dimension of policy capacity in producing regulatory effectiveness, in conjunction with an integrated model of distribution of the regulatory tasks. As to ineffective governance, the conjunction of low independence or low accountability with low institutional capacity produce ineffective responses. Table of Contents
